On behalf of the Oireachtas Committee, I extend a very warm and heartfelt welcome
to all our teachers, parents, competitors and guests to Oireachtas Rince na hÉireann
2009.
We return once again to the Kingdom of Kerry and the magnificent Irish National
Exhibition Centre, part of the Gleneagle Group which is rapidly becoming the preferred
home of the All Ireland Championships. |
I hope that you will take time to explore the beautiful countryside and the excellent
facilities provided by both the Gleneagle and Brehon Hotels. I am confident that you
will receive very hearty Céad Míle Fáilte wherever you may travel.
My own personal thanks to my fellow officers, members of the Oireachtas Committee,
our office staff Máire Ní Threasaigh Mhic Riocaird, Lily McGovern, Lisa Gatti, and
Sinéad Ní Fhátharta, the staff of the INEC our sponsors and advertisers and anyone else
who have helped to make this great festival of our national dance a highlight in our
dancing calendar.
I extend my best wishes to all competitors and teachers for a very successful Oireachtas.

Óráid An Chathaoirleach
Ar son an Choiste Oireactais, ba mhaith liom mo chéad míle fáilte a chur riomh gach
aon múinteoir, tuismitheoir, iomatheoir agus cuairteoir chuig Oireachtas rince na
hÉireann 2009.
Ar aghaidh linn arís i dtreo na ríochta chuig Ionad Taispeántais Náisiúnta na hÉirinn
(INEC), atá mar pháirt de ghrúpa an Gleneagle agus óstáin Brehon. Táim cinnte go
nglacfaidh gach éinne a gcéad mile fáilte romhat cíbé áit.
Mo bhuíochas pearsanta le mo chomhoifigí, baill an coiste Oireachtais, ár bhfoireann
oifige, Máire Ní Threasaigh Mhic Riocaird, Lily McGovern, Lisa Gatti, agus Sinéad Ní
Fhátharta, foireann an INEC, ár nurraitheoirí agus ár bhfógróirí agus duine ar bith eile
a dtug cabhair sár fhéile a chruthú, ócáid atá mar cheann do na buaicphointí ina
mbaineann leis na rincí gaelacha.
Mar chríoch, is mian lion áth mór a ghabháil le gach aon iomatheoir agus múinteoir,
agus tá súil agam go mbainfidh siad Oireachtas rathúil amach.
